BBM new message icon won't go away!!

I am in need of help. My Curve keeps showing the BBM "new message" icon, but there are no new messages. I suspect it is a contact request but they are also not being displayed. Any ideas how to fix/what to do?

Someone accepted an invite from me while my BB was off at night and when it came back on the new msg icon wouldn't go away. I clicked on every conversation and did a battery pull but it is still there. Anyone have any thoughts on how to fix this?

GMZ...what version of bbm do you have? .57?
If you do, there are a zillion threads here about the ghost icon. It will not go away. I have reinstalled bbm and it still comes back. Only way to get rid of it is to find bbm 5.0.0.33 and revert back to it.
BATTERY PULLS do not solve the problem and if it does, it is only temporary.

Yes I do have 5.0.0.57. I had heard of the ghost icon, is this a problem with that version? So how do I go back to the old one?
